Establishment of human hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells with overexpressed human hepatocyte growth factor
Objective(s): Chronic liver disease has become a major health problem that causes serious damage to human health. Since the existing treatment effect was not ideal, we need to seek new treatment methods. Materials and Methods: We utilized the gene recombination technology to obtain the human hair mesenchymal stem cells which overexpression of human hepatocyte growth factor (hHGF). Furthermore, ...
متن کاملInhibition of human hair follicle growth by endo- and exocannabinoids.
Recent studies strongly suggest that the cannabinoid system is a key player in cell growth control. Since the organ-culture of human hair follicles (HF) offers an excellent, clinically relevant model for complex tissue interaction systems, we have asked whether the cannabinoid system plays a role in hair growth control. Here, we show that human scalp HF, intriguingly, are both targets and sourc...
متن کاملDifferences in Growth Response of Human Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells to Herbal Extracts and a Growth Factor
Background: One of the key questions in biochemistry is why cell becomes aged and what are the involved factors? Why cell growth is stopped after some divisions and cells become senescent? This occurs in a greater frame in the whole body and cells dye after a while. Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is characterized by a loss or decrease in hair follicle size, which could be related to the loss of ha...
متن کاملHuman Hair Follicle: An Update on Biology and Perspectives in Hair Growth Disorders Treatment
The Hair Follicle (HF) is a vital component of mammalian skin and represents a unique, highly regenerative system that undergoes phases of rapid growth, regression, and resting periods. The hair cycling is of profound clinical relevance since majority of the hair growth disorders occur as a result of cycle changes. The influence of many molecules governing the formation of HF has been investiga...
متن کاملThyroxine Differentially Modulates the Peripheral Clock: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle
The human hair follicle (HF) exhibits peripheral clock activity, with knock-down of clock genes (BMAL1 and PER1) prolonging active hair growth (anagen) and increasing pigmentation. Similarly, thyroid hormones prolong anagen and stimulate pigmentation in cultured human HFs. In addition they are recognized as key regulators of the central clock that controls circadian rhythmicity. Therefore, we a...
